secondly, to president obama's credit, he is no saddam hussein. that means when saddam hussein made a decision, you would either agree with it or you would die if you're inside the iraqi political establishment. saddam did not have to deal with a pesky congress, nor did he have to deal with an israeli prime minister. as a result, the iranians had confidence that saddam has the strength to be able to live up to his end of the bargain. that is not the perception that the iranians have, rightly or wrongly, about president obama. can president obama promise the lifting of sanctions, mindful of the fact that most of these sanctions that really are hurting the iranians have gone through congress and only can be lifted if there's a congressional decision? can anyone here remember last time congress lifted sanctions in a relatively swift manner? moreover, the principle that was steabled in the negotiations was the principle of reciprocity, the idea that any reversible concession from the western end had to be matched by a reversible concession from the ir
